- kybernetyk 5y agoYeah, the mafia cares about EU regulations. Or so I've heard...
- baq 5y agothe mafia doesn't make batteries.

- baq 5y agooh for sure, not denying that. but - regulation should make the good thing easy: battery construction rules must require ease of recycling and recycling itself should be the easy default option in practice, not just on paper. it can be done. no profit for the mafia left in that case.
